THE directors of International Industries have recommended a special dividend of 18 cents a share to make up for the lack of a final dividend for the year to March 31. The previous board of directors had not recommended a final dividend when company results were released in May because discussions on a change of control were taking place. The special dividend is now being recommended with Joint Truth's acquisition of 68.3 per cent of the company's shares having been completed. The new directors of the company have mainland links.
